Your engine is crudded. Base reason for lifter issues inna Saab.
Fill the sump with Either Diesel or ATF (diesel would be wayyy cheaper tho) And run the engine for a couple of Warm up cycles, Rad fans running..
Do Not ! drive it (Diesel is a poor lube, but has a v good detergent action).
Then dump it and the filter. Dependent on the look of the Diesel dumped. Decide whether it needs repeating? Then refill with Oil/filter.
Try/use 15/40 or 20/50 on this earlier and worn Saab engine. I have.. for 40+ years now with Zero issues.
Leave the Low viscosity Synth oils for your Brand New Lexus.. for which they are well suited/intended.
Clicking of Injectors should be audibly annoying, But lifters will be silent IF not clogged up.
